Foolproof shower sex moves that anyone can swing

There's so much that can be said about shower sex (like the fact that it's quick and easy and slippery and steamy), and so little time. But how about we just show you instead?

OK, OK, let's bring our minds back a few steps from the gutter. While we're not at liberty to show you the ins and outs of shower nookie -- pun totally intended -- we've drawn some sexy diagrams that will point you in the right direction. For all those dirty, dirty couples who need to get clean, you've got to try these scandalous shower sex positions at least once:

How you do it

"Standing with her back to him, she dips slightly at the knees while leaning forward, leaning against the wall of the stall or, if the shower is in a tub, she'll lift a leg and balance her foot on the edge of the bath. He spoons up behind her with his legs hip-width apart (if she is lifting her leg, he can help hold it in place). In addition to making it easier for him to slip and slide into her, these small shifts will even out any height difference issues and ensure they are both dripping with delight. She concentrates on standing firm while he grabs her hips and gets down and dirty," says Lisa Sweet, author of 365 Sex Thrills.

Pro tip: "Water can actually be drying, so lube up with a silicone gel — water-based ones just wash away," Sweet says.

Why it's awesome

"Water is sensual and adds a wet and wild sensation to lovemaking, especially if you play around with hot and cool temperatures," Sweet says. "Lightly rubbing sensitive bits with a soft, wet washcloth or spraying them with a handheld shower will help to lather things up even more."
